Analysis of Biopharmaceutical Lyophilizate Appearance and Structural State by X-Ray Microscopy (XRM) (CAT#: STEM-B-0424-CJ)

Introduction

The development of a lyophilized formulation and the corresponding freeze-drying process go hand in hand. An in-depth characterization of the freeze-dried powder during process development provides all relevant data require to optimize critical process parameters. Freeze-drying has advanced to the point where it is a common practice for biopharmaceuticals, including blood plasma and vaccines. Lyophilization is still a method of choice for preservation of the growing list of biopharmaceutical products.
